🌟 Tiny bar run by a group of Buddhist monks. I went here one NYE and they brought out a small bell and handed out copies of the heart sutra for everyone to drunkenly chant at midnight.
The cocktails were good too!
🌟 A beautiful cafe attached to a major temple in the tsukiji area. I highly recommend going here for their breakfast! They have several options, but the set meal with 18 small dishes the most famous, and impressive. This place is really popular and they have a limited amount of sets they serve each day, so if you want to make sure you can try it, you can ask someone at your accomodation to help you make a booking for that specific breakfast set. Otherwise try and go on a weekday because it’s especially popular on weekends!
The walk from Ginza station is pretty reasonable.
I'm sure you've seen this temple throughout many photos and guidebooks. Sensoji (浅草寺, also known as Asakusa Kannon Temple) is a Buddhist temple and one of the most popular temples visited in Tokyo. Sensoji is also Tokyo's oldest temples, as it was constructed in 645.
